Abstract art is the emotional core of the form: because there's no subject to read, the viewer isn't interpreting a scene; you’re having a more immediate response to the visual event itself — the way a particular red sits next to a particular black, the way a line moves fast versus slow, the way a canvas feels crowded or empty.

Abstract Expressionism generally leans on this: the mark as evidence of a psychological or physical state at the moment it was made.

The paintings in this gallery are acrylic on watercolor paper or canvas.
